Introducing Margao

The capital of Salcete province, Margao (also known as Madgaon) is the main population centre of south Goa and is probably the busiest town in the state. If you’ve just arrived from the cities of ‘real’ India then the first thing that will strike you is how clean and tidy Margao is. Even though there is little to see or do here it’s worth stopping by to see how Goa lives beyond the beaches.
